My psp won't read games or movies

I put in a game or movie and and error comes up that says "Disc cannot be read." I was playing a game on it then went to watch a movie and it wouldn't work. I tried putting the same game back in and it didn't work either. Hasn't worked ever since.

check first that you are using version 3.71 which i image you are if you bought in asia ( main menu system information)
regardles of wheter you are on this version or not i'm damm sure is not a sony release of the firmware you bough in asia :-)

I had the same problem -- we even returned the disc and got a new one.
Go to the Vizio site and download the firmware for your player. Put it
on a USB stick and plug it into the player. Follow the onscreen
instructions (basically just press OK). The entire process takes less
than 5 minutes from download to finish.

sounds like the laser is shot or possibly dirty, either way needs lookin at. so may need new laser. my own personal preference, go custom firmware and do away with using the laser, theres lots info on the web if interested.

update your firmware sometimes the new games that u buy at the stores require that u update to the newest version.
if this doesnt work then u should call up sony.
sonys number is (800-345-7669)
ask them what might be wrong with it.

go to setting and look for the system settings option then go down to the format memory stick and that should create you all the files.then connect the psp to your computer and check that the folders are made
